«Agamemnon”, a play by Aeschylus produced jointly by the National Theatre of Greece (NTG) and the National Theatre of China (NTC) will be presented in Beijing between February 20 and March 2, the NTC announced on Thursday, according to ANA.
The play relates the story of Agamemnon, King of Argos, who led the Greek army during the Trojan War but was subsequently murdered by his wife, Clytemnestra, as revenge for Agamemnon’s earlier sacrifice of their daughter, Iphigenia.
Artistic director of the Greek National Theatre and director of the play Stathis Livathinos described the experience as an excellent exchange between the two theatres.
